[Verse 1: Slow, melancholic guitar riff, soft drums, emotive vocal delivery] I walked a road of shattered glass, Each step a wound from my past. Chased shadows that would never stay, Gave my heart, they turned away. [Builds slightly, bass enters, vocals grow more intense] I trusted hands that broke my trust, Built dreams on promises of dust. Every choice a heavier chain, Bound to loss, drowned in pain. [Pre-Chorus: Guitar swells, vocals rise with desperation] Why did I run to the dark? Why did I give up my spark? (Oh, my spark) [Chorus: Powerful, soaring melody, full band kicks in, heavy yet melodic] Ask me anything, I’ll tell you why, I chased the stars and fell from the sky. Betrayed by love, by my own hand, I’m ashes now where I used to stand. (Ask me anything, I’ll bare my soul) Every wrong turn took its toll. Ask me anything, I’ll show the scars, A broken heart beneath the stars. [Verse 2: Slightly faster tempo, distorted guitar layers, vocals raw and pleading] I loved a man with a serpent’s smile, He swore forever, stayed a while. His words were sweet, but they cut like knives, Carved out the hope from my fragile life. [Drums intensify, guitar riff sharpens] I chose the fire, I chose the fall, Ignored the truth, I lost it all. Each mistake a ghost that haunts my sleep, A secret I can barely keep. [Pre-Chorus: Guitar tremolo, vocals quiver with emotion] Why did I trust in their lies? Why did I close my own eyes? (Oh, my eyes) [Chorus: Explosive, emotional peak, soaring vocals, heavy guitar chords] Ask me anything, I’ll tell you why, I chased the stars and fell from the sky. Betrayed by love, by my own hand, I’m ashes now where I used to stand. (Ask me anything, I’ll bare my soul) Every wrong turn took its toll. Ask me anything, I’ll show the scars, A broken heart beneath the stars. [Bridge: Slower, haunting piano and soft guitar, vocals soft and vulnerable] [Whispered] I wanted love, I wanted light, But I chose wrong in the dead of night. [Vocals build, anguished] My heart’s a grave for dreams I slew, Each one a piece of me I knew. [Guitar solo: Wailing, melodic, full of sorrow, backed by soft percussion] (Oh, I’m fading, fading) I’m the echo of who I could be, A shadow screaming to be free. [Chorus: Final, climactic rendition, full band, vocals at their most powerful] Ask me anything, I’ll tell you why, I chased the stars and fell from the sky. Betrayed by love, by my own hand, I’m ashes now where I used to stand. (Ask me anything, I’ll bare my soul) Every wrong turn took its toll. Ask me anything, I’ll show the scars, A broken heart beneath the stars. [Outro: Slow fade, soft guitar arpeggios, vocals fading to a whisper] Ask me anything, I’ll tell you true, The girl I was, I never knew. [Soft piano notes linger, single guitar strum] (Ask me anything, I’m broken still) [Silence, faint echo of backing vocals]
